Chapter 430 It’s lonely to go far away alone
Mu He on the side was thoughtful. "Although it is a low-probability event, it is not completely impossible. If he can, he can indeed wipe out an entire city."
After receiving Mu He's certification, the High Priest of Mingyun City fell silent.
Such a powerful person is completely different from her who is powerless to resist.
"Let's go, let's go, we have to go and take a look." Zhong Mu was panicked. He picked up Mu He with one hand and picked up the high priest with the other and rushed into the city quickly.
Just after taking two steps into the city, he did not see any human figures, nor did he hear any sounds. Almost when Zhong Mu was sure that Brother Xiu had slaughtered the entire city, he heard the sound of people's voices in the distance, in unison, which even sounded a bit weird in the empty city.
Zhong Mu silently slowed down his pace and stood stealthily at the street corner, looking towards the main city.
He thought he would see some brutal scenes of Yin Xiu slaughtering people, or some horrific acts of forcing confessions from the people in the city. But in fact, a dense crowd of people sat neatly under the high summoning platform, holding paper and pen, looking up at the people above. They were extremely well-behaved and honest, and super harmonious.
"Immortality, is it truly a good thing for you?" A clear voice echoed through the quiet city. The person standing on the summoning platform slowly paced while gazing at the gathered crowd below. "People live to gain happiness. All the functions of the body are for the brain to accumulate joy."
"You have lived for so many years, but you have only lived physically. You have never thought of leaving the city to see the world, with the goal of gaining something beyond your lifespan. Living in this narrow city, your life has no end in sight. Is your life truly meaningful?
"Have you ever thought about anything other than your lifespan?"
The following people began to recount their past, and it seemed that they had really only stayed in Changsheng City and had never gone out to see the world.
This is not only the case in Changsheng City, but in all other cities as well. God gave them happiness, but also gave them a cage.
"Let me ask you again: Do you think you really need God? If there is no God, will it hinder your daily life, watching the sunrise and sunset, and being with your loved ones?"
Someone grumbled, "But God will give us a guarantee, a guarantee of safety and life, so believing in God won't make any difference."
Ye Tianxuan stared at the person who spoke without saying a word. "First of all, protection is most effective when it occurs in times of danger, and the Four Great Cities have never experienced any danger. Everyone is just blindly accepting the benefits brought by God, but they have never considered that without these benefits, you can still live well."
"If I leave today, and there are no gods in Changsheng City tomorrow, will there be any impact on you other than not being able to see me?"
Someone followed suit and said, "You'll lose the guarantee of your future lifespan. Other than that... it seems like there's really nothing else."
But Ye Tianxuan had said before that they should not just focus on lifespan, but should live a more varied life in their limited life.
Other cities are not blessed with immortality, but the residents of other cities still live well, and immortality does not seem to be a necessity for them.
The residents looked around, because they had been favored by the God of Immortality for so long that they sometimes forgot that the humans in other cities were living well without immortality.
They never left this area because if they left, they would lose God's favor. Even if they lived forever, they would live forever in this narrow city.
For a moment, everyone came to their senses and carefully reviewed what they wanted to do. It seemed that it was really as Ye Tianxuan said, there was nothing else to do except living in Changsheng City.
"Who is that?" the high priest asked softly, although based on Zhong Mu's previous description, he could more or less guess that this was the "Boss Ye who was killed by Brother Xiu" he mentioned.
But I still asked politely.
"That's Boss Ye. I feel relieved to see that Boss Ye is still alive." Zhong Mu breathed a sigh of relief. In his heart, he accused the little tentacle ball of an even greater crime, saying that he had passed on false information, which had made him very worried.
"So that's the person you trust." The high priest murmured. Just like Zhong Mu, even standing in the crowd, he couldn't hide that special aura. "He's a person with a bright soul."
"Of course! My Lord Ye is super nice! Brother Xiu is nice too." Zhong Muxiong was very proud and pulled the two of them into the crowd to meet Ye Tianxuan.
Suddenly, Ye Tianxuan raised his hand, pointed at Zhong Mu in the crowd, and shouted, "You! Tell me, besides staying in Changsheng City, is there anything else you want to do?!"
His direction was very clear, so everyone looked at him in an instant, staring at Zhong Mu, who was stunned.
The next second, Zhong Mu realized that Boss Ye was using him as a pawn!
So Zhong Mu straightened up with a righteous look on his face and loudly made up something like an elementary school text, "I want to see the wider world, I want to understand things beyond Changsheng City. I'm still young! My life should be brilliant and I shouldn't be trapped in this small city! I want to leave Changsheng City!"
His voice was loud and clear, and his response was very natural. For a moment, the people in Changsheng City didn't realize that this face was quite unfamiliar.
Some people were moved by Zhong Mu's help and felt that everyone should do the same, so they also decided their own goals.
"I've actually wanted to learn painting for a long time, but there aren't many people who can teach painting in Changsheng City. I'd really like to go to Shuangsheng City to take a look. I heard that there are many talented people there, and many chosen ones have been blessed by the God of Luck."
"I also want to visit other cities and learn about their cultures. I'm tired of the scenery of Changsheng City."
"Yeah, yeah, it would be nice if I could go out and meet someone I like. Changsheng City is full of acquaintances, and I'm not interested in any of them."
"Speaking of which, I also..."
"I heard it's easy to find a partner in the Forgotten City. I wonder if it's true."
"It makes me want to go."
"Hahahaha, me too..."
As everyone was bustling with activity, a slender, white hand stretched out from the crowd, saying, "I want to fly freely like a bird, never landing anywhere in my life, until my life is exhausted."
Everyone turned around and saw a pale girl standing in the crowd. Even though the sunlight added a bit of warmth to her face, her face was still as white as paper.
"Look at you, little girl, you're still quite young, yet you've set such a difficult goal for yourself?"
"Yeah, at your age, you look like you grew up under everyone's love, right?"
“It’s lonely to go far away alone.”
Facing the gazes of the crowd, the High Priest of Lifefall City smiled and said, "I also hope to use the functioning of my body to bring joy and happiness to my brain, so I will go to many places and experience a lot of happiness."
"Before my life runs out, make up for it all."
